Ep. 88 Unlocking Self-Expression: Beyond the Teacher Persona
In this episode of Shadow Work, WTF?, I'm taking you on a wild ride through my journey of stepping out of my comfort zone, breaking past the teacher persona, and embracing self-expression in my business. We’re diving deep into my struggles with perfectionism, the pressure to always be the expert, and how it's held back my true personality and creativity. This episode is raw, unfiltered, and a major leap for me in being more authentically myself. I hope it inspires you to do the same.
